Ted and Steve
I don't believe this is a Lackawanna Station but I can't swear to it. Its
seems to have the
two tone green and red. Stroudsburg was the only station that came to mind,
but I don't think it fits. Those unique uprights should be a dead give away
for someone.

I also think Stroudsburg would not have been rural enough to have that many
deer brought into town. This could be any rural town big enough to have a
substantial station, and close enough to the forests to attract hunters. D&H,
Erie, and O&W all could be possibilities.

I'll forward it on to the EL group, and maybe someone on there can forward
it on to the O&W and D&H groups. I'm sure with the diverse membership
population someone will say, SURE
THAT'S............................... taken from the ............... end
of the station which was built in ............ and was demolished in
................. .. I lived just down the street and up the hill from there. lol
